What Are You Doing Right Now
-
Monday morning E-mail deletions.
-
I awoke at 630a yesterday and instead of going back to sleep, I put my esxi system in to maintenance mode, added a 7tb raid10 (4x4tb drives) and upgraded from v6.0 to v6.7u3. After bringing everything back up, I created a 6tb datastore for Nethserver to use and then I spent an hour on how that wants to use mounted file systems vs shares, which I resolved. Then, by 10am, I began moving data from on of my plex libraries to the new datastore and left the house. New docking station for my WFH setup. Home, installed it, but now I need a gov't IT admin from the workstation division to put in a password for driver installs.
A good day, but I have 2 docks on my desk now and too many cables everywhere. Data moves didn't finish until almost 7pm. Plex is happy, though.

just received 7M of firewood
What in the fuck is that?
In ‘Murcia we measure ranks of wood by the cord.
1 cord of wood = 4’ x 4’ x 8’ stacked = 128 cubic feet.
Though if it is cut and split, you use something like 110 or 120 cubic feet as a cord.
I haven’t been a pseudo lumberjack since 1991.
hahaha, bloody idiot. 7 metres cubed.
since I'm working from home my wife stacked it
WOW - that's a lot!
-
Update - No one in the house is showing symptoms. No fevers or anything - Doctor said if we dont show symptoms by friday (this week) we can end our quarantine.. SO far So good.
-
A little gardening before it gets too warm out.

And the coffee is brewing.

Yeah, grew up always measuring in cords.

Just stood up a PiHole5. Redoing the entire local network is a pain, even for my home lab. So many things.

We never measured it in Kentucky. Once we had the large shed filled up we knew we had enough for the coming winter. Btw my dad is 77 and still goes out to cut his own firewood and split it back home. Hope Im doing that good by then.

Just filled a wheelbarrow with so much clay it crushed the wheel. Oops

someone in my office has been confirmed as having Covid. yeah...

So at this point, literally everyone I know in Nebraska has been exposed. Admittedly a small cross section, but as the hard stance "no lockdown" state, doesn't seem to have avoided the infections like they expected.

You're not wrong.. And they're reopening everything.
It's ridiculous, but.. Oh well. -

The lockdown was never about avoiding infections, it was about slowing it down so as not to overwhelm the healthcare system, which is currently wide open - in fact in some places they are actually furloughing nurses, and staff because they patient load is so low, they don't need the staff.
Of course, Nebraska has reopened to elective surgeries as of last week, so I'm guessing many of those furloughed have been brought back. -

That's unrelated to the overwhelmed hospitals issue. The ERs that are overwhelmed are not the ones that are laying people off. This is, again, repeating obvious fake news. People ARE being laid off, but they aren't medical workers with any way to help with the COVID crisis. NY, for example, was way, way, way beyond overwhelmed and was laying off doctors and nurses because the facilities are overwhelmed, not the people.
Here in Dallas, we can't provide basic medical care, yet we're actively closing hospitals. The one doesn't explain the other. Don't conflate the ideas.

That seems unlikely, Nebraska has so much ER capacity that they aren't treated those in need or helping all the other neighbouring states that lack capacity?

I have no idea where you came up with the stance that we were expecting to avoid the infections.
While we didn't have as hard a lock down as many states, many non essential businesses were in fact closed - movie theaters/barbers(hair salons)/dine in restaurants/tatoo parlars. I'm not sure if non essential manufacturing was closed or not, not that we have a lot of that here. Luckily, I think we are mostly either white collar or service industry here, not much typical blue collar (construction being an obvious exemption).

That's a key part of the social distancing. Trying to make it so that the vulnerable don't get infected at all - either by waiting out the clock and herd immunity arriving, or by a vaccine arriving. The rest of the country isn't just trying to flatten the curve, but also trying to reduce the area under it.
